An enjoyable read. Interestingly, as kids, Smithy and I shared the same speech teacher, Margaret Price. Putaruru based, she would come through to Tokoroa weekly to give elocution lessons, which I dreaded. Smith says he was her worst pupil. I beg to differ. @Tokoroa_TM

@skysportnz Andrew’s is quite good on a push bike. She was so dominant in the sprint, she could’ve won it on a Raleigh 20. @Olympics @skysportnz

@1NewsNZ So @1NewsNZ you run a three night story on the Fiji drug issue on prime time news but relegate this to X tweets?

[Rod de Lisle @roddelnz]

@Nic_mcc Agree. It’s mostly boring “let’s criticise and knock the govt” rhetoric on @1NewsNZ every night. At least they don’t try to hide their left bias, I suppose.

The gaslight specialists. Even on a day when @TVNZ @1NewsNZ announce National are up in polls, they spend most of their coverage of that ripping into the government. A divided country? Our shameful media are responsible for most of that division.

Why don’t they have this on the news instead of politics? Humans are awesome. @okgo

@nzherald It’s ironic PETA and Greenies go apeshit about cancelling battery hen farming, but seemingly have no issue with battery farmed people …. Most would prefer to be free-range I’m sure. 😉
